WF1CB Frigidaire PureSource RG-100 Water Filter Specs

Many refrigerators have the convenience of an ice maker as well as ice and water dispensers. For the water and ice to taste their best and to remove unwanted chemicals from the water, filters are necessary. The WF1CB Frigidaire PureSource RG-100 Water Filter works in Kenmore and Frigidaire Energy Star compliant refrigerators manufactured after April 2001.

    What WF1CB Does

    • This water filter reduces particulates (class III) by more than 98 percent and chlorine (class I) by more than 96 percent. It does not remove fluoride. The filter has been tested and certified by the National Sanitation Foundation, or NSF International, for performance and quality under NSF/American National Standards Institute (ANSI) standard 42. NSF International is an organization that develops public health standards and certification to help protect food, water, health and consumer products. ANSI promotes voluntary consensus standards and conformity assessment systems, and safeguards their integrity.

    Replacement Schedule

    • On average, this water filter should be replaced every six months, depending on usage. Many refrigerator models have a "change filter" light that indicates when it needs to be replaced. The WF1CB water filter is in the freezer side of the appliance. It has blue ends and sits inside a white plastic cup that has to be unscrewed to get to the filter.
